Kamrooz, you can't win this one! :)

I know...lol..I was just wishing the other people good luck =P. 

 that would be a nice system

BigWop:

Kamrooz, you can't win this one! :)

 I'd say, if he enters and wins this computer, he can send me the skulltrail system! lol! I think it is a fair deal isn't it?

By the way, another great giveaway (contest), please count me in, this month is going to be great. I bet the activity will jump again. Thanks for the contest. I'm in!

Count me in I,m Poor! Politically correct version. ( Financially Challenged) Same Case as mine. Grat case only differance Mines empty!!

I wonder how many people actually are going to enter this contest. The skulltrail contest was a success, and hopefuly this will be success as well. We'll have to see. :) What do you guys think?

nice , hope i win this . i'm in desperate need of a pc . good luck to everyone . 

Sweet little system, and I closely mirrors a new system that I have been planning recently. It sure would be great to win it instead of spending my (all too scarce) cash...

 My my...Definitely getting more lively around here ^_^.

Let's just wait and see who stays and keeps posting and who just posts once in this thread. lol :)

^indeed 

would be nice to have 

Kamrooz Got your new rig yet? if so hows it doing!!!

 Not yet =P...But I was told it would ship today! =D..I'm so ecstatic.I'll post pics of everything as soon as I get my handson it it...^_^..As a celebration though, I'm about to max out my credit card that I just cleared on a new mouse, keyboard, head phones, and sound card..About 500 bucks worth of goodies...=P...I'mma just have to pay it off slowly..But no way would I disgrace the Skulltrail rig with a beat up PC155 from sennheiser (microphone tore off, all beat up looking, and wire cut all over the place), a heavily banged up mx510, a apple g4 keyboard, and integrated audio =P...Quality baby!...lol..

Very nice.  That CPU should overclock to at least 3.2ghz.  Definitely more powerful than my 939 AMD, although it has kept my system competetive enough to enjoy some quality gaming.  But improvement is always welcome. :-)

Love ya generous guys here at HotHardware.  It really is above and beyond what any other sites do.

Good luck everyone in this March of madness.

I'd bet it'll do more than 3.2GHz. Especially after I polish the IHS and install the ZEROTherm Nirvana 120 I forgot to list in the specs! :P

Mmm...

/me wants :( ...

It's time to kick out my Mobile AthlonXP rig...

hehehe Good Luck guys!! :D

Well everyone can give up since I'm now here to claim my rig...lol

Wow, you guys really are serious about the give-aways. That last one must have garnered tons of attention.

 Well the liveliness has been jumping up ^_^..If they keep it up it'll atleast drive more activity from newer members...and as time goes on, they'll become regulars ^_^. Personally, I think it's a great idea...But make sure you guys don't go too crazy and go broke =P...lol..

One contest a month does sound fantastic ^_^. 

DAMMNNNN!!!!!!

This is too sweet; one rig ws given away and now another.

Rubs hands.....   Round 2... Fight ;)

And 3.2Ghz.... hope that it could do that on or near stock voltage.  I'd say 3.6-3.8Ghz for overall clock at least.

Hot Damn!! Two chances to win kick-ass gear back-to-back!!

This would make a good replacement for an aging D*ll PC that gets used for nothing but streaming audio since its capabilities are suxors.

Very nice system I'd love to win it :)

 sweet, I'm down for this one as well. Count me in....

 i hope i win!

i really like this system,even if it is not skulltrail!

 Another great contest two systems in a row!

i think we would all like to win 

damn if i win this im posting up some hardware on the site too  kamrooz style :-)

I gave the nod to aJay letting him know I will donate a C2D and HDD to him should I be victorious

 A virtual tip of the hat to you kind sir. If I win I will donate my rig to the Museum of Ancient History.

the winner will be chosen random,or based on the contribution from the forums? 

The winner will be chosen amongst those of us who have not ever been banned before -- and then subsequently apparently made new accounts

^^^ What he said ^^^

I was really waiting a response from an admin for that 

AjayD:

thats funny

LovelyCrap:

The Royal Ontario Museum is opening an exhibit on typewriters in July (I think)... So you could hit them up.

Coincidentally I happen to have a typewriter that weighs more than my computer. Maybe I could rent it out along with my rig for them to put on display. Then I could use the profits to buy some hardware that would actually be worth donating to forum members. 

I read the rules of the contest carefully,that is why I asked this.If you choose a winner randomly,you mean you select the winner from all the users from this forum.If the selection is based on the community involvement and contribution,means that the choice is not random.

Ah, now I feel kinda bad with people promising to give away their old parts a la Kamrooz.  I have to be honest and say I would not.  I'm not gonna ebay it or anything, but my family comes first and my brother could use an upgrade from his Pentium 4 and Radeon 9800 Pro.  He's gotta play something neweer than Half-Life 2.  So I'd donate my old 939 rig to him, since it can still play most new games at reasonable settings.  But good for you guys that will.  And good luck to all.

I am doing moreso because I am having trouble selling the stuff -- so I figure why not? If I were to win a ~$1,000 rig I would be more than happy to give away a $150 CPU (to someone that would need it of course)

Don't get me wrong I will be selling the rest of my rig's stuff though.....I don't think I could just GIVE AWAY a q6600....

I couldn't give anything away.  I'm in despert need of a second rig.  If anything I'd need to help out a friend that needs an upgrade to his rig anyways, which he rarely has money so benifits him alot more.  Call me stuborn or not but anything computer of mine gets recycled into the Dethman's Bigger & Better Computer Fund when I sell it, since I don't want to spend alot out of pocket I sell old parts and components to pay for newer stuff.

Well deathman you should PM me and we can have a chat if you would like :) My whole rig is down thanks to my MoBo dying so I happen to have a lot of stuff nothing being used that I wouldn't mind getting rid of

Na can't yet..  Wife would go nutz if I did something like that.  Where trying to get a house so well can't do anything til at we lease settle into the new place.  Think I'd loose some parts that I really wouldn't want to loose.

Nice system I could definitely use a new one my old one works but it's definitely showing its age

Haha, I like how the article was posted like an hour ago and there are already this many replies -- well I am sorry fellas but its all for naught.....the system is MINE!!! mwahhahaha

I will arm wrestle each and every person that stands in my way :)

Oh yeah, Big-Wopizzle -- so what you are saying is you're going to lap the HS for us too?? Whadda guy...

Yeah man, and that CPU is from my lab! LOL
